Toy Hauler

Don't really know if this belongs here so admin if it needs to be changed, please do so.

We have recently bought motorscooters to fight the high price of diesel. Our scooters get 110 mpg. We plan to take them with us when we head south for the winter. The only way we can take them is to actually put them in our unit.

Does anyone know if Keystone, Montana specifically, is thinking about offering a toy hauler in the future?

I wondered myself because we all seem to want to strap something on the back, but after seeing their Fusion and Raptor, as well as the new Mountaineer hauler (all Keystone), I'm not sure they have their sights on a Montana model. I would seem like a redundant marketing move.

I agree,

but, if I was in this situation I would not hesitate to take a long hard look at that Mountaineer Toy Hauler, a 2009 Mountaineer far surpasses what our early Montanas were. They have really brought that line up, it is FAB!! And that Toy Hauler looks great

They are truly a great looking unit. They catch my eye all the time with that champaign two tone and new wheels, and at the show I sometimes couldn't tell if I was in a Mountaineer or Montana.

Keystone "Raptor" is the answer to this question. http://keyperformance-raptor.com/

Actually the Mountaineer would be a great Toy Hauler for 2 scooters. While the Raptor is one of the best it is also one of the more expensive. While the Raptor was built to haul the bigger toys the Mountaineer was built for the smaller toys.
Like Carol said "a 2009 Mountaineer far surpasses what our early Montanas were." There is standard equipment on today's Mountaineer that wasn't even offered on my old 2004 Montana.
I would give the Mountaineer 347THT some very serious consideration.

The Mountaineer may be the ticket. Will have to see if the closest dealer has one on the lot. Thanks for the information.

I noticed the Mountaineer has Equa-flex (Trailair) suspension on it. Wonder if Keystone is getting away from Mor-ryde?
